The law is unlikely to go to the U.S. Supreme Court, per the York Daily Record. The U.S. Supreme Court upheld an Indiana voter ID law six years ago; the Pennsylvania law was modeled on that one.

State Republicans — who passed the voter ID law over the objection of Democrats in 2012 — could always go back and change the law: McGinley struck down the ruling because the said the law “does not provide a non-burdensome means of obtaining compliant photo ID.” Due to court injunctions, the law has never been enforced in the state.

If the state wants to win an appeal, it will have to hit at all the elements of McGinley’s ruling: “McGinley found there was no evidence of in-person voter fraud in Pennsylvania, that hundreds of thousands of eligible voters could have been disenfranchised, that obtaining a valid ID was difficult for many eligible voters and the state’s campaign to educate voters contained significant information.”
